Sofie Linde and Joakim Ingversen have created a ceramic series for Kähler. For them it was a dream come true, but reality is not as pastel colored as the ceramics. Because even if no one had seen the products, the criticism and ridicule came immediately. – It is a huge advantage that we are in some sick way used to it, says Sofie Linde.

The entire ceramic series, consisting of cups, vases and the apple figure. Perhaps you recognize the background, as the photos were taken in Sofie Linde and Joakim Ingversen’s house in Langeland, which is known from the TV program “Linde på Langeland”, where you can see, among other things, how she paints the hallway inspired by the colors from the Palads building in Copenhagen.

Sofie Linde and Joakim Ingversen are used to facing criticism when they do something new. But they use each other to lean on when they encounter Internet hate on social media. As Sofie Linde says: – Sometimes it hits hard. And when you stand there and even just feel like you’ve been slapped, there’s someone who might have a little more confidence to push you a little.
